More Equipment for P90X2

         One of the best things about the original P90X workout program was that it required very little equipment. Besides the DVDs, the only things necessary were workout bands/dumbbells and a pull-up bar. This is very little equipment for such a high intensity program. However, P90X2 will require much more equipment than that.  The biggest and most obvious reason for this is because the workouts are much more intense, and with more equipment you can do more diverse and intense workouts. If you are going to be training like a professional athlete, you gotta use at lease SOME tool that they do. At this point in time, the equipment that appears to be needed for P90X2 is

• Medicine Ball
• Balance Ball
• Pull-up assistant band
• Foam Roller
• Dumbbells/Bands
• Pull-up Bar

         Note that the last 2 are equipment that was used for the original P90X workout.

         Now you may be seeing all of this equipment and thinking "wow that's gonna be a lot of money" or something similar to that. But the truth is, you don't NEED all of this equipment. But, if you want the best results, you will need to use the equipment.  Additionally, most of the new equipment is cheap or can be made at home, so cost will not be a big factor in preventing you from getting optimum results. Most of these things cost anywhere from $10-$25 so most people will be able to add these items to their home gym.
